A Chat with Mrs. Chrisman...
This week was a fun week at Roosevelt and Alliance! We finished last week with our school dance. There were quite a few kids there and everyone seemed to have a great time! Thank you to all of the parents who helped out at the dance! We started this week by celebrating our 100th day of school. It was great to see a lot of kids dressed like they were 100 years old. Make sure to watch the video Mrs. McMahon made. The link is later in the newsletter. Our schools have also started working with our Artist in Residency, Jennifer Stevens. The students finished their writing piece and some students have started their Iroquois pottery. Ms. Stevens will finish visiting with all classes this Thursday. Our program will end with a "Share Time" on Thursday afternoon. Parents are welcome to attend the "Share Time", if interested. The schedule can be found later in the newsletter. Thank you to the Student Experience Committee for sponsoring this program. I think the kids are enjoying it!!
